Driven by his insatiable need for revenge, Lothaire, the
Loreβs most ruthless vampire, plots to seize the Hordeβs
crown. But bloodlust and torture have left him on the
brink
of madnessβ until he finds Elizabeth Peirce, the key to
his
victory. He captures the unique young mortal, intending
to
offer up her very soul in exchange for power, yet
Elizabeth
soothes his tormented mind and awakens within him
emotions
Lothaire believed he could no longer experience.
A DEADLY FORCE DWELLS WITHIN HER
Growing up in desperate poverty, Ellie Peirce yearned for
a
better life, never imagining sheβd be convicted of murder
βor
that an evil immortal would abduct her from death row.
But
Lothaire is no savior, as he himself plans to sacrifice
Ellie in one monthβs time. And yet the vampire seems to
ache
for her touch, showering her with wealth and sexual
pleasure. In a bid to save her soul, Ellie surrenders her
body to the wicked vampire, while vowing to protect her
heart.
CENTURIES OF COLD INDIFFERENCE SHATTERED
Elizabeth tempts Lothaire beyond reason, as only his
fated
mate could. As the month draws to a close, he must choose
between a millennia old blood vendetta and his
irresistible
prisoner. Will Lothaire succumb to the miseries of his
past
. . . or risk everything for a future with her?
